Well, that will either be filibustered in the Senate, or passed and then vetoed. My money is on filibuster. The Dems are more afraid of party discipline than voter rejection.

Obama Granted Asylum to 500,000 Mostly Muslim Syrian Refugees some 2 years ago

Several high ranking Democratic officials were spotted leaving the famed Capitol Hill watering hole Tortilla Coast. On the menu, discussions of Obama’s decision to grant political asylum to 500,000 (mostly Muslim) Syrian refugees.

Following a report recently released from Amnesty International that Jordan had forcibly removed thousands of refugees to their home country, the Obama administration has decided to take action. “Amnesty is extremely concerned about this trend. While Jordan has made tremendous efforts to accommodate half a million refugees, and is facing pressures as a result, these do not justify such violations of international law,” says Amnestys Neil Sammonds, who worked on the report.

The UN has also released a report stating that Syrians in Jordan now account for 10 percent of the country’s total population and Jordans economy simply cannot support such a large influx of immigrants. Approximately 2 million Syrian refugees have fled to neighboring countries in the region including Jordan, Turkey, Iraq and Lebanon. According to the report, 6 million Syrians are in desperate need of help and 4 million have been displaced due to the ongoing Syrian civil war.

The Syrian civil war broke out on March 15, 2011 and nationwide demonstrations grew large by April 2011 as part of the protest movement known as the Arab Spring. The protesters demanded the immediate resignation of President Bahar al-Assad, whose family has been in power since 1971.

National Report confirmed that Obama will announce his intent to grant refugees immediate citizenship status under the guise of political asylum (which triggers hefty monthly SS checks).

Camps are being setup in rural areas across the US to temporarily house the refugees complete with FEMA housing, temporary Mosques and schools.

I assume this unfortunately includes Christians.

My, my. Looks like the political establishment is getting all concerned.

Admiral Yamamoto’s quote would be appropriate.

Of course, even if Obama passed this, he’d simply expedite granting a bunch of visas to Muslims, and skip the Christians.

From the article; "The No. 2 House Democrat, Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, said he worked closely with GOP leaders on the visa waiver bill and that the measure said it was "reasonable" and "measured" plan. He contrasted it with the call from Donald Trump, the billionaire businessman who is calling for a ban on all Muslims from entering the U.S."

More stupid people who didn't read Trump's press release. It's NOT A BAN!! It's a stand down, a moratorium - "until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on".

They seem to have omitted Tunisia, Somalia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei, and southern Philippines, among several others.

A step in the right direction. Logical, to the point, effective. I sometimes believe the government wants to keep us in a state of fear so they can control us, they want us living like the Israelis must live which is in a state of permanent unease and paranoia, in order to punish us for being Americans who have benefitted from too much prosperity in the world’s lottery.

Michael Medved and Dennis Prager were spewing against Trump today and it was starting to annoy me. I think we should ramp down the righteous indignation and try instead to protect the well-being and safety of the tax-paying citizens in this country. This is why we have a government, to protect our citizens, not to open our borders to the world. Sorry if that offends somebody.

Paul Ryan, the voters who are asking for sanity in this whole immigration mess are loyal American citizens. I’m asking you to protect us, not insult us. I don’t believe the government gives a crap about my health and safety when they knowingly admits a flood of people who are not properly vetted. They know they’re not vetting them. They think we’re stupid airheads who don’t know what’s going on. It’s insulting.
